Now it’s possible to tell you exact tax law. There is lot of controversy in your case but in Maharashtra in "Income-tax Vs. Deepak Fertilizers and Petrochemicals Corporation Ltd (304ITR AT 367)" case, Mumbai bench of ITAT held that this receipt is capital receipts hence not liable to tax in the hands of company. But you in direct tax code 2009 this forfeiture is chargeable to tax under other source. For you reference follow link for details https://www.taxmann.com/BlogDetails.aspx?bid=20.

No I thought you got satisfactory explanation.

I will provide my cell number but please before that mail me @ shri.kar4@gmail.com so that I can give you my number through mail.
